Tessa Stammberger (BScK’16) is going pro. She recently signed a contract with Hannover in Germany’s first division. Playing professional basketball runs in the family: Stammberger was coached by her mother, Anna Stammberger (BPE’83), who also played at Dal, then went on to the German professional ranks.

Stammberger, who is five-foot-eleven, anticipates that she will play guard for Hannover.

Very happy for Tessa…she is a tremendous person and a great @DalTigers https://t.co/hBFoCyMJ2Y
